Gaytime Nemo raced into the annals of greyhound racing history with a faultless display in Saturday night’s final of the Star Sports/TRC English Derby at Towcester.

Owned by the O’Connell family of Blarney and trained by Graham and Nicky Holland, he is by the imperious Droopys Sydney out of the O’Connell’s own bitch, Gaytime Derval, and this success earned him £175,000.
